Yes. I wish I was as well. My parents have taken my grandparents down that very road the past week on a vacation down to NC. I long to have been able to go with them.
And I am so pleased it gave you some freedom and escape.
Good luck on your exams man! I have such respect and admiration for folks who have been able to go to school and make the best of their minds. Or as well as can be done in school. hehe

Hehehehe.... yeah I think I take too much escape in DA these days when I should be studying. Keeps me sane though!!

Yes indeed. Having recently come back home from a year at a few different hospitals, its been difficult for me to keep off of it as well. But then I have more hours awake in the day than most, and very few responcibilities that people generally have to deal with.
Get back to work! lol Kidding mate.

hehe Yeah. Ive had my go with them. I now drink 8 or more 32oz glasses of water a day to keep mine going. It works so much better than the steroids. Well, with less side effect anyway. Dyalisis is something to be avoided if at all to be helped.
Amazing. You astound me. I dont know how people do it. College, and all. Amazing.
My brain would explode.

I hope sleep comes swiftly and deep my friend.
And yeah, one gets used to it. One gets used to just about everything I find. Its a neat trick really.
Five weeks in one day...
Amazing.

Ahh, thank you. Its a lovely spot. I should post the other season photos but am too lazy to take them off my parents wall and scan the photos. Those negatives are long gone.
I have all but snow on it. Rather pretty.

I love the sky, and the clouds, but I think what I love most is the way the tree is leaning, its appears as if it is leaning towards the sun. Very nice indeed

I ought to do that. They hang at my parents place now that I have moved.

Still working on this. They are in NC at the moment, it would be a good time to go get them and scan them, but they have two girls staying there as house guests and I never know if I should go over. Perhaps when they are back and the house is empty or they are home.

Dizzying perspective, but that's one of the things I like about the shot. Normally you'd expect someone to photograph the tree with the horizon perfectly level, but you've chosen not to do it that way. The perspective you've chosen gives more sense of what it's like to achieve the view.
I'd like to see that collage. I'll bet it's quite interesting.

Oh.. I am honoured by your visit. Thank you so very much for commenting. I had forgotten about taking them down and scanning them. The other seasons (as well as this one) are on film, not the digital. I'll add that to my list of things to keep me occupied here.
Its a very good feeling to go down and see that tree still there, and to stand on the same spot and record it. Our human lives move so quickly, but that tree has probably been there in that same spot for over 50 years, and has moved relatively little. Life is a beautiful thing.

Wow, great shot. It reminds me of goldstream, and that montain there.... and excellent view, they have there.

It is indeed a lovely view. Ive taken photos of that tree along side the road for quite some time. In every season. Its beautiful all year round.
